That seems like a good idea.

You missed an S in enShittification.

And I completely agree, Cory seems to be good at coining terms and making them stick 👍

A winning strategy 👌

I think we need to look a bit back in time for the answer:

Was introduced to Merlin a few weeks ago on a scout nature course, and I love it so much!

I’m using it a sort of real-life pokémon game, trying to grow my list of found birds (Life List). So far I’m up to 36! 😍

Yay, space opera! 🥰

Highly recommend almost everything by Peter F. Hamilton if you haven’t read them, arguably top 3 space opera authors ❤️

Edit …: and Boo! Google!

I realize this is a FOSS channel, but I’m going to play devil’s advocate and suggest Eagle.

I have some 40K assets, mostly JPGs and PNGs, and apart from Obsidian, Eagle is the best piece of software I’ve found in the last 5 years, maybe longer, and I absolutely adore it.

It’s not free, but it’s pay-once, fairly cheap, and the upcoming version has an API and huge focus on community developed plugins.

The current version supports a huge amount of file types, including 3D. I’m not completely sure about audio, but I’d be kinda surprised if Eagle didn’t support audio.

Thank you! I may just take you up on that, but think I need to read some how-to’s first 😁

I’ll see if I can’t figure it out, think it’s mostly a question of lacking available time to get into it properly 👌

Always make a backup! Hopefully, they remembered the 1-2-3 rule 🤔

Ooh, that’s good! 🤯

Are you sure you responded to the correct comment? 🤔

I tried setting up Audiobookshelf in Podman on my ancient Mac mini recently (now running Fedora x KDE), and turns out I don’t know the first thing about running “dockered” servers/apps and absolutely couldn’t get it to work 😅

Ah yes, the John Waters strategy! ❤️

Wow, that looks great! I was beginning to think you’d missed my comment, or, worse, that it was too annoying 😅

Happy you managed to translate the acronyms and found some of it helpful; I spent way too much time on it 😅

Think the changes are really good! Being allowed to enter words that don’t live up to the dot requirement really takes a lot of friction out of it and makes it so much more enjoyable!

Looking forward to seeing future updates, keep up the good work!

I actually stumbled upon a small issue: in Chrome on my Android phone, I’ve enabled a flag to force dark mode, and it doesn’t play nicely with the game. An edge-case for sure, but might be worth looking into. See screenshots below 😊

• Chrome Dark Mode flag enabled, game in Light Mode:

• Dark Mode enabled + game Dark Mode toggled:

Agreed, which is funny because he’s an intelligent guy, and I wouldn’t normally take him for someone who’s fall for this type of confirmation bias, but tech is a blind spot.

Also, I think he sees me as someone who is overly cautious (for one thing, there are some differences in opinion about how my wife and I raise our kids), which probably means that because the warning about his IT setup is coming from me, it’s already somewhat tainted by that.

Thank you 😊

I’m happy to help, and she wrote a very sweet message to say thanks, she was very happy 😁

And I’ll be very pleased once we get it all sorted. I left her computer copying the files from that sketchy drive to the other one, so at least, until I go back, there should be a bit of redundancy 👌
